How about a class that uses blunderbuss?

Dwarf rifles would be so cool, small sized riflemen, think about it? I was thinking a new class that makes a warcraft 3 rifleman come to life and maybe they could be called demon hunters or something?

    My main is a Dwarf GF. Everyone says,"You're a Tank." No, I'm not. Tanks have big guns (like a heavy Crossbow) with big damage [20k dmg/rank (Rank 4 - 80,000 dmg/shot)]. Heavy Crossbows have been in D&D since the early 1970s.

    Do those exist in Forgotten Realms? This isn't WoW. They have to go by the lore that WotC allows them to use.

    I guess some of the lore from warcraft has its origins from Dungeons & Dragons... would not mind a class or a companion that uses traditional gun powder weapons, just for fun!

    Gunpowder officially doesn't work, with one grandfathered exception for the Murlynd.
    I wasted five million AD promoting the Foundry.

    If I wanted Wow, id play WoW.

    Putting guns in forgotten realms would be like putting lightsabers in Star Trek.

    Dwarf Techsmith.
    Mainhand: Blunderbuss
    Offhand: Tool Kit
    Can create contraption, that will aid him in combat.

    Something similar to the Dwarf Engineer from WARHAMMER...
    I do believe in killing the messenger...
    Want to know why?
    Because it sends a message!

    I know 2nd edition AD&D had a few primitive firearms on the equipment table. I cannot say for sure on more recent rule sets though. If you were to implement that into NW you would have to make ammunition a concern and that would affect the HR as well.

    D&D had Arquebus listed in the Players Handbook. Personally I would not mind seeing something like this added.

    Since there is no "mana" system here, there's no need for amunition either.
